The Resume: Your Life On A Postcard
Originally By Yana Parker (http://www.damngood.com)


The resume is your key to the employment office door. It is what gets you the interview that gets you the job. It's a declaration of what you can do and why you would be the best candidate for that job.

Effective resumes do not write themselves. They require some research, a fair amount of self examination and a good deal of self promotion. Effective resumes are not laundry lists of jobs once worked. Save that for your obituary. A resume must trumpet your achievements--and you've got them--in a clear and concise way. Look at the resume as an exercise in pumping yourself up as well as cramming for the really big test--the job interview.

Key topics covered here are:
  • Resume Formats
  • What goes into the Resume
  • Thought-Provoking Tips
  • Examples of Resumes
